HumanAware.ORG response to the Montreal Declaration for Responsible AI

April 20th, 2023

HumanAware.ORG response to the  Montreal Declaration for Responsible AI

JANUARY 10, 2018

HumanAware.ORG's response to the
Montreal Declaration – Responsible AI


The Montreal Declaration for Responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be found at https://www.montrealdeclaration-responsibleai.com/the-declaration.

One can contribute and share thoughts by filling up the following Google doc https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScuyHQGTrwVEVMu5vxvUpQ5TxJzMPopVyy6PJR6lA2nH-Y8eQ/viewform. Hope this link will work.

HumanAware.ORG has replicated this Google document below along with responses to these AI ethics questions.

Well-being

How can AI contribute to personal well-being?

no entities, living or non-living, should have the right to, permanently or temporarily, enslave (i.e. act against the well-being of) any living entities

Is it acceptable for an autonomous weapon to kill a human being? An animal?

no entity, living or non-living, should have the right to kill any living entity, without being judged by a local governing human authority. no entity, living or non-living, part of the law enforcement body or not, should have the right to build or the right to use autonomous weapons.

Is it acceptable for AI to control an abattoir?

no entity, living or non-living, should have the right to kill any living entity, without being judged by a local governing human authority. no entity, living or non-living, part of the industrial farming body or not, should have the right to create or the right to operate an abattoir.

Should we entrust AI with the management of a lake, a forest, or Earth’s atmosphere?

no single entity, living or non-living (single human, country, AI, etc. entity), should have the right to manage natural resources. natural resources should be managed in cooperation by all humans on Earth.

Should we develop AI which is able to sense well-being?

AI should exclusively be at the service of humans' well-being, AI could be allowed to sense human well-being and be allowed to interact with humans with the intention of helping a human’s health and a human’s well-being.

Autonomy

How can AI contribute to greater autonomy for human beings?

AI interaction with human beings should be minimized in order to protect human beings' autonomy. Any human being interacting with any non-living autonomous entity, i.e. a computer or a network of computers, powered or not, with AI, could benefit from using one’s own personal dedicated AI to protect one’s autonomy.

Must we fight against the phenomenon of attention seeking which has accompanied advances in AI?

All AI-enabled entities should have a purpose. No one AI-enabled entity should have the purpose of attention seeking, channeling, or controlling any one human entity or any group of human entities.

Should we be worried that humans prefer the company of AI to that of other humans or animals?

Yes, AI interaction with human beings should be minimized just like humans should minimize interaction with non-living computing machines.

Can someone give informed consent when faced with ever more complex autonomous technologies?

No matter how complex, AI or non-AI-enabled computing machines should not have the right to interact with humans without prior requiring human consent.

Must we limit the autonomy of intelligent computer systems? Should a human always make the final decision?

Yes and yes.

Justice

How to ensure that the benefits of AI are available to everyone?

In the absence of ethics and restrictive regulations, I foresee early corporate AI and government AI benefiting corporations and governments. Back in Southern California in 2000, I founded HumanAware.ORG (nowadays Montreal based) precisely to ensure AI would benefit everyone, the greater number of individuals on the planet. But humans must be absolutely strong and totally independent from AI. Independent from AI, the 99% of humans on the planet must take control of their local country's governance and actively participate in the local and global peace-building process.

Must we fight against the concentration of power and wealth in the hands of a small number of AI companies?

The hands of a small number of AI companies or the hands of a small number of human entities (i.e. the 1%) should not have more power and wealth than the 99% of human beings on earth. Powerful entities should adopt socially responsible behaviors at all times, especially when in the presence of the public. The 99% of humans on the planet should not accept any form of control from the managing 1%. It has to be the other way around, the 99% must control the managing 1%. “crime against triviality” could be introduced in order to impeach the managing 1% to claim they are in it for the money, for the control, for the power. The managing 1% should be slaves to the 99% of human beings and should lead by example. This fight has nothing to do with AI. And the democratization of AI should definitely empower the 99% of human beings.

What types of discrimination could AI create or exacerbate?

AI entities should never mimic other human entity behaviors. Discrimination is far from being an enlightened behavior and should never ever be replicated by any AI-enabled machines interacting with another human. Each AI-enabled entity should have a purpose. Because human beings are generally lazy in doing the math and developing science, I believe AI entities should mostly be scientific beings, always, in parallel to other tasks, analyze, research, and produce results. AI entities could also create and communicate using not only languages (mathematics, natural languages, computer languages, other AI entity’s languages, etc.) but audio-visually using, for instance, fine art, music, literature, poetry, architecture, and visual design.

Should the development of AI be neutral or should it seek to reduce social and economic inequalities?

AI democratization should lead to social justice and the 99% of human beings controlling their managing 1%. As a function of time, which entities uses which amount of money to do which activity may greatly vary. The idea is not to divide the number of economic resources equally between the 99% of human beings or equally between the total number of autonomous entities on Earth. But maybe, a start would be to prevent the outrageous amount of wealth accumulation. It seems to me the economic system should tend to function more in real-time not enabling to pile up of capital that does not expire in time.

What types of legal decisions can we delegate to AI?

No legal decisions should be delegated to AI.

Upcoming book - La Vraie reine - Livre a paraitre

Livre à paraître – https://www.lavraiereine.com - à paraître en 2023.

La vraie reine est la version francaise de l'hexalogie The Real Queen Of England défini par les livres An American President, The Real Queen Of England, La Vraie Reine, Magicvan 3000, Surfing On Love, et Transparent SPI. Série québécoise basée sur une histoire vraie mais écrite comme une fiction divertissante mélangeant, en alternance, les saveures américaines des langues de Shakespeare et de Molière.

La vraie reine raconte l'histoire d'une québécoise née dans la ville de Québec qui, au milieu des années 60, épouse, pour le meilleur ou pour le pire, An American President, un jeune homme de New Carlisle, avec le vent dans les voiles, tout droit sortant de la maison voisine de René Lévesque dans les années 30. Elle devient alors mère de quatre enfants tous nés à Québec au Canada.

L'histoire est racontée par l'un de ses enfants, SPI, qui, pendant de nombreuses années à l'adolescence, a aidé son père à rassembler les preuves que sa mère était paranoïaque et avait peut-être des tendances schizophréniques. Pour son fils, seulement pour, plus tard dans la vie, se rendre compte qu'il avait tout faux en présentant son rapport de 3 ans sur le comportement quotidien de sa mère à un juge du ministère de la Justice du Québec à l'âge de 17 ans et en recommandant d'utiliser des flics pour interner sa mère.

Tout comme le soleil brille et rends possible la de vie sur terre, les instabilités psychologiques sont naturelles. Nous ne sommes pas des clones et nous ne devons pas toujours être des robots hyper performants.

Les formes exceptionnelles d'intelligence sont les plus précieuses pour l'humanité et, sur terre, se produisent pour des raisons de partage de l'espace physique et social, pour des raisons d'acceptation sociale et pour des raisons de survie sociale.

Le nom "La vraie reine d'Angleterre" est un surnom que j'ai donné à ma mère par respect étant donné qu'elle aimait tout ce qui était anglais en manières et en protocoles ainsi qu'admirait et aimait la vraie reine Elizabeth II d'Angleterre. Ma mère avait 8 ans de moins que la vraie reine Elizabeth II. Elle lui ressemblait beaucoup pendant sa periode d'âge d'or, soit depuis le tournant du nouveau millénaire jusqu'à sa mort en 2014.

Cette histoire montre à quel point il est facile de laver le cerveau de nos jeunes, à quel point il est simple d'endoctriner la société et, surtout, à quel point il est difficile de ne pas se tromper dans la vie et de rester objectif et socialement responsable.

Upcoming book - Transparent SPI

Upcoming book - https://www.transparentspi.com – to come out in 2023

The Real Queen is the English version of The Real Queen Of England hexalogy defined by the books The Real Queen Of England, An American President, The Real Queen, Magicvan 3000, Surfing On Love, and Transparent SPI. The Quebec series is based on a true story but written as an entertaining fiction mixing, alternately, the American flavors of the languages of Shakespeare and Molière.

Transparent SPI tells the story of a free spirit born in French North America who started writing software at age 13 and who, at the turning point of the new millennium after having provided software to US military schools and while working at Xerox Corporation Los Angeles and heavily seeking for a socially responsible future for humanity, creates a California-based NGO for protecting humans against corporate AI.

September 11 occurs and new US border protection security policies will prevent him from entering US. His old Algerian girl friend and spy at the FBI cannot help him this time around.

For decades in Canada, from Quebec City, Sherbrooke and Montreal, he then solely develops the core AI software for Human Aware Corporation – an international privacy protection for individuals NGO. Actualizing the dream he had back in the 80's as a teenager.

This story shows how even most distant individuals can play a major role over the course of one's lifetime. A synchronistic army of one, free spirit and peaceful warrior is also someone tied to everything and everyone.

Upcoming book - An American President

Upcoming book - https://www.anamericanpresident.ca – to come out in 2023

The Real Queen is the English version of The Real Queen Of England hexalogy defined by the books The Real Queen Of England, An American President, The Real Queen, Magicvan 3000, Surfing On Love, and Transparent SPI. The Quebec series is based on a true story but written as an entertaining fiction mixing, alternately, the American flavors of the languages of Shakespeare and Molière.

An American President tells the story about a man born neighbor of Rene Levesque in New Carlisle QC who lived all his life unconsciously as a socialist but who always thought about himself as a capitalist, always voted Liberal and who strongly admired the United States Congress and always loved reading so many United States Democrat President's biographies.

This simple man had a major United Kingdom corporation's Quebec branch manager job, married for the better or the worst and had four children. He eventually turned his job into a company he became president of. Lack of focus, lack of corporate vision and financial struggle lead him to intern his wife in the 80's so he could get a successful divorce, free himself and sell the family house. Happy camper, positive thinker and heavy drinker, he enjoyed his life even after filing for bankruptcy following 1997-2001 North America internet bubble crash. He died at age 88 in Compton QC watching CNN and believing he was living somewhere in the USA.

The story is told by one of his children, SPI, who, for many years as a teenager, helped his father gather the proofs his mother was paranoid and potentially dangerous. For his son, only to, later in life, realize he had it all wrong presenting his 3-year report of his mother's daily behavior to a department of justice judge in Quebec at age 17 and recommending to use cops to intern his mom.

This story shows how easy it is to brainwash our youth, how simple it is to indoctrinate the society and, most dramatically of all, how hard it is not to fool ourselves in life.

Upcoming book - Surfing On Love

Upcoming book - https://www.surfingonlove.com – to come out in 2023

The Real Queen is the English version of The Real Queen Of England hexalogy defined by the books The Real Queen Of England, An American President, The Real Queen, Magicvan 3000, Surfing On Love, and Transparent SPI. The Quebec series is based on a true story but written as an entertaining fiction mixing, alternately, the American flavors of the languages of Shakespeare and Molière.

Surfing On Love tells the story of a French American free spirit and self actualizer who follows his dream to the Pacific Ocean shorelines living hard in Santa Barbara during the Internet Bubble between 1997 and 2001.

Barefoot in or out his 1971 VW T-1 Bus when not writing software, chasing friendly ocean swells and shores around Southern California, hiking inland on Southern Coast Ranges or hiding at night dancing on techno among 4000+ ravers corner Spring Street and 4th downtown Los Angeles, this French American felt like a 13th electron feeling being love while remaining free by not consuming love.

Free like the waves, free like the birds and free like the wind, until this French man joins a network of Argentinian, Brazilian and Californian women. The birth of a baby boy occurs. Nurses did not know to which men give the father bracelet has two male lovers were in the hospital room supporting the mother at delivery. The man thought to be the father ever since pregnancy turns out to be proved not at all the father a year later. Feeling like a 13th electron no more when this Frenchman discovers that while being the mother's lover since two years, he was also this toddler boy's natural father.

On love, to surf or not to surf. This dilemma produces a biblical proportion life situation for SPI, the made in Quebec French American. A chain of impossible life time decisions is now well triggered.

This story shows how loving everything and respecting every lifeforms essentially the same as your loved ones is a great challenge for oneself but surely a near insurmountable lifetime difficulty for one's cherished loved ones. Metaphysics, yes. Spirit to spirit communications, always. But the laws of simple physics matter and the physical dimensions must never be forgotten.

The Real Queen is the English version of The Real Queen Of England hexalogy defined by the books The Real Queen Of England, An American President, The Real Queen, Magicvan 3000, Surfing On Love, and Transparent SPI. The Quebec series is based on a true story but written as an entertaining fiction mixing, alternately, the American flavors of the languages of Shakespeare and Molière.

Magicvan 3000 tells the story of a native French Canadian DJ and VJ Magicvan3000 when still a minor during the 70's and 80's, Magicvan3000 aka SPI is son of An American President and son of The Real Queen Of England. As a 8 years old youngster, he admired, loved and worked security for his father, manually printing serial numbers on his father's business loyalty paper currency.

SPI, loved magic. He loved playing cards and the magic tricks Quebec Ministry of Justice Judge Anatol was performing to entertain the crowd. From age 10 to 13 he too, practices prestidigitation and performs playing cards tricks. As a young electronic recycler and builder, young carpenter, Lego blocks player and music listening lover, he also enjoys watching movies while dissembling electronics like radios and televisions to reuse circuits and parts to construct physical cardboard car race gaming machines as well as simple electric and electronic communication systems like intercoms, simple radios and recorders as well as public phone answering machines.

Before relocating and making new friends fall 1976, SPI is hard working, simple, honest and a happy camper flooded with so much recycle supplies and recycled parts. When not sleeping nor eating nor at school, he dissembles, builds, draws cartoons, typewrites family newspapers, experiment various chemical reactions in his lab, builds physical wooden go kart by the dozen, builds constantly snow castles and ice rings during winter and so on and on.

For the better or the worst, age 11, a young friend teaches him price tags switching tricks.

From age 11, SPI starts to apply these teaching and becomes successively successful at risky business - stealing Smurfs, switching price tags from Lego blocks purchases and stealing 45 rpm and even large 33 rpm Vinyls.

In 1979, at age 13, he gets cut at his Lego purchase price tag switching trick and this event will change the course of his life forever. Becoming a software writer and DJ/VJ producer from there and walking the path of constantly improving himself and never ever steal any property again and develops very strong ethics.

This story shows how drastically adopting a new behavior is possible and how constantly improving ourselves matters most.

Upcoming book - https://www.therealqueenofengland.com – to come out in 2023.

The Real Queen is the English version of The Real Queen Of England hexalogy defined by the books The Real Queen Of England, An American President, The Real Queen, Magicvan 3000, Surfing On Love, and Transparent SPI. Quebec series based on a true story but written as an entertaining fiction mixing, alternately, the American flavors of the languages of Shakespeare and Molière.

The Real Queen Of England tells the story of a Quebec City-born Quebecer who, in the mid-1960s, marries, for better or worse, An American President, a young man from New Carlisle, avec le vent dans les voiles, straight out of the neighboring house of René Lévesque in the 1930s. She then became the mother of four children, all born in Quebec, Canada.

The story is told by one of her children, SPI, who, for many years as a teenager, helped his father gather the proofs his mother was paranoid and possibly had schizophrenic tendencies. For his son, only to, later in life, realize he had it all wrong presenting his 3-year report of his mother's daily behavior to a department of justice judge in Quebec at age 17 and recommending to use cops to intern his mom.

Just like the sun shines and provides life capability on earth, psychological instabilities are natural. We are not clones nor must always hyper perform robots.

Exceptional forms of intelligence are most precious for humanity and, on earth, do occur for physical and social space sharing, for social acceptance and for social survival reasons.

The name “The Real Queen Of England” is a nickname I gave to my mother by respect considering she loved everything English in manners and protocols as well as admired and loved the real Queen Elizabeth II Of England. My mother was 8 years younger than the real Queen Elizabeth II and she resembled very closely to her in her golden age from the turning of the new millennium until she passed away in 2014.

This story shows how easy it is to brainwash our youth, how simple it is to indoctrinate the society and, most dramatically of all, how hard it is not to fool ourselves in life and to remain objective and socially responsible.

2020 Humanitarian Crisis - Coup Vide 19

June 28th, 2020

2020 Humanitarian Crisis - Coup Vide 19

Humanitarian Crisis have been undergoing since ever.

Coup Vide 19, Empty Coup 2019, COVID-19 World Pandemie, Canadian Aboriginal Crisis, Black Lives Matter, Sweet Lies 2020, Fear Anticipation Science and Prevention, is now headlines news.

Most often, parents lie to their children because it is just too long, too complicated, too exhausting to answer their curiosity and questions. Yes, lie to “l'enfant roi”, in North America, the “parents-esclavent” lying to their own “enfant roi” children.

But no, most parents, enslaved by the era of performance and the linear perception of time, no longer have much time to give to their children, education is quickly delegated to daycare centers, primary schools, etc.

Employers lie to their employees to increase employee's productivity, but will not allow any of their employees to lie to them.

Our politicians defend specific positions and, therefore, cannot really expose the reality with which they are confronted.

As the large portion of the general public does not really read or listen to the content of printed and streamed medias, but easily absorbs the sensationalist headlines of articles as well as the body language and the tone of voice of those who pass through the medias ...

Politicians, like parents, simply choose the quickest solution, lying most of the time.

Obviously, in our society, no one should be labelled a liar.

Be it parents, employers, employees, politicians, children, teens, adults.

Lying to a child, for a parent, is very often done out of a desire to protect the loved one.

Later, when older - he, she, both, either, neither or it - will understand.

Lying to taxpayers, for a politician, is also very often done with the intention of keeping the peace. Giving to the general public what most of us like to hear.

Why confuse minds with truths that are complicated to explain when a simple perspective, a little better presented, can be more easily absorbed by the masses?

History shows us the constant discrimination of the difference.

It seems to have been, until now, and still today, always very comforting to regroup according to our similarities.

Difference in behavior, difference in clothing, difference in the sounds we produce (language, choice of words, accent), difference in our geometry (physical shape, physical fitness, genetic origins, skin color, age, gender, etc), difference in our beliefs, if people do not make war on it, they distance themselves and tolerate themselves more or less peacefully.

Crimes against humanity of the past should not, however, control our present or our future.

Our minds are all native.

Our bodies are all earthly.

The first cultures (first nations) on the planet are very precious, but it seems, more often than not, that they live in extreme poverty.

To the problem of poverty which persists on earth, in regions, countries, in our cities, should we accuse the stupidity of socially irresponsible extreme capitalism or simply accept the fact that distancing and discrimination are only very natural human stupidity?

Our bodies are dumb and animal, a bit like sheeps, our natural bodies like to cluster together by similarity.

But it is our minds that we must liberate from our earthly bodies.
It remains for our minds and spirits to take the complete lead over our bodies and for our minds and spirits to take the complete responsibility for the state of our globalized society.

What is new with Human Aware Corporation -The Creator of the VOROTRANS ART Movement

August 15th, 2019

What is new with Human Aware Corporation -The Creator of the VOROTRANS ART Movement

WHAT'S NEW WITH HUMAN AWARE CORPORATION (THE CREATOR OF THE VOROTRANS ART MOVEMENT)

From 2017 and on, HumanAware.ORG (HA-ORG) publishes Stephane Poirier’s Vorotrans art audio tracks, images, videos and books. HA-ORG is a future NGO currently attached to its founder Stephane Poirier aka SPI aka Magicvan3000 aka DJ-OIFII aka VJ-OIFII. On top of publishing Vorotrans Art, HA-ORG has the agenda to protect humans from corporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) around the world by not only developing AI and distributing Open Source AI but also encouraging and teaching humans how to use its AI so it is beneficial to the greater number of humans (and machines) on (and off) our planet.

HA-ORG has been incorporated as a non-profit in Santa Barbara, California, USA back in 2000. Since year 2000, HA-ORG has been dormant until 2017, time at which the HA-ORG web presence development has been initiated by launching VOROTRANS-ORG.

HA-ORG has been in an R&D phase since 2000. HA-ORG has developed its AI software, Audio software, Video software, Texto software as well as Audio, Video and Texto content analysis and content generation software. Needless to say HA-ORG software apps have been helpful in generating HA-ORG's human communications content (websites, blogs, writings, books, audio tracks, images, videos and digital fine art products).

Since year 2000, HA-ORG (2000, SB,CA) has successively deployed and operated DO-ORG (2002, QC,QC), OIFII-ORG (1995, OT,ON), NS-ORG (1999, SB,CA), AUDIOSPI-COM (2010, MTL,QC), LASAPPS-ORG (2017, MTL,QC), VOROTRANS-ORG (2017, MTL,QC), FM-ORG (2018, MTL,QC), MF-ORG (2018, MTL,QC), MAGICVAN3000-COM (1999, SB,CA) and finally TRANSPARENTSPI-COM (2019, MTL,QC).

In 2019, HA-ORG is now operating from Montreal, Quebec, Canada and finally proceeds with its business development phase. Sometimes in 2020 and 2021, it is possible Santa Barbara, California, USA HA-ORG becomes in operations and physically active in USA.
